Jones, Grace - My Jamaican Guy Lyrics






Take a toke from the smoke,
Never standing by the door,
Just stretching out pan de floor,
That way him don't fall over,
No way him gwan fall out pan me,
That way him won't fall over,
No way him gwan fall out pan me.

'Cause he's layed back, not laying back,
Layed back, not worried back,
Layed back, not thinking back,
Layed back, never holding back,
My Jamaican guy, My Jamaican guy.

When my dread start to sw..
Him no think if it hot nor cold,
We just come in a de riva cold,
Dat way him don't waste him wata,
No way it gwan run out pan him,
Dat way him don't waste him wata,
No way it gwan run out pan him.

'Cause he's layed back, not worried back,
Layed back, not thinking back,
Layed back, not laying back,
Layed back, never holding back,
My Jamaican guy, My Jamaican guy.
My J.A. guy.

Take my life for a drive,
Never need to change his tools,
Him drive like a stubborn mule,
Dat way him naw go plop plop,
No way gas gwan bun out pan him,
Dat way him naw go plop plop,
No way gas gwan bun out pan him.

'Cause he's layed back, not thinking back,
Layed back, not worried back,
Layed back, not laying back,
Layed back, never holding back,
My Jamaican guy,
My J.A. guy.

    No le caen gwan forma de pan de mí, 
    De esa manera él no se caiga, 
    No hay manera de caer fuera de mí gwan pan. 

    Porque él es relajado, no echando hacia atrás, 
    Relajado, no le preocupa la espalda, 
    Relajado, sin pensar en la espalda, 
    Relajado, nunca reteniendo, 
    Mi chico jamaicano, mi chico jamaicano. 

    Cuando mi miedo empieza a sw .. 
    Él no piensa si, frío ni calor 
    Nos acaba de llegar de una manera fría de la Riva, 
    Forma dat él no le wata de residuos, 
    No hay forma en que se quede sin pan gwan él, 
    Forma dat él no le wata de residuos, 
    No hay forma en que gwan quedado sin él la sartén. 

    Porque él es relajado, no le preocupa la espalda, 
    Relajado, sin pensar en la espalda, 
    Relajado, no echando hacia atrás, 
    Relajado, nunca reteniendo, 
    Mi chico jamaicano, mi chico jamaicano. 
    Ja a mi chico. 

    Toma mi vida de una unidad, 
    No necesita cambiar sus herramientas,

    A.... ....

    LL Cool Cheater

    A.... ....

    Ur late... I knew that back in 1996 with my old ass

  53. Q.... H....

    LL Cool J aka Uncle L brought me here :)

  54. R.... S....

    Ever since Conan, View To A Kill & Boomerang- I've had a thing for Grace Jones

    R.... S....

    As much as a man I think I might be, Grace would humble us all. she is simply bad ass

    R.... S....

    @yarbles67 If I was running a nightclub, I'd put her on the door! She would fuck up an y chancer that fancied his luck that evening!

  55. J.... ....

    So glad LL Cool J sampled this. I don't care how unoriginal it was. I would never find these gems like these tunes without those artists. Its like yummy food... REHEATED! Thanx Grace u weirdo!!

    J.... ....

    I can respect that. We find "new" music however we find it. Be it when u discover that LL Cool J sampled this classic cut or whether you heard the original song when it first came out. I'm just glad you found it,...better late than never. LOL!!

  56. 1.... ....

    doin it

  57. c.... j....

    thats were ll cool j got the backing for doing it

  58. z.... ....

    I so agree !

  59. M.... S....

    Hers are the best grooves of that time and since. Feel Up registers on the Richter scale.

  60. S.... A....

    ultimate box cut

  61. j.... ....

    sampled by the group 2much ft. Lashawn for the song "Wild Thang"

  62. B.... E....

    She was a strong bond girl in "A View to a Kill"

  63. p.... ....

    @merse2007 No, LL is twice removed! LL actually stole it from a female rap artist that her jerked... Her name is Lashawn and she lifted it from Grace Jones. Fuckin' biters!

  64. M.... V....

    omgssh ll cool j stole this woman's work. damn nobody is original anymore

  65. E.... S....

    @YungJoshii

    ...and Kid 'n' Play's UNDERCOVER ft. the Real Roxanne. which i think came out before LL sampled this if i'm not mistaken.

  66. l.... d....

    Did Lady GaGa steal Grace's act or was it Madonna?

    l.... d....

    They both did!

  67. s.... ....

    GRACE JONES WAS BORN AND RAISED IN JAMAICA, HER PARENTS WERE/ ARE FUNDEMENTAL CHRISTIANS WHEN GROWING UP WAS ONLY ALLOWED TO WEAR DRESSES BELOW KNEE LENGTH AND HER TOPS SLEEVES HAD TO BE DOWN TO THE WRIST /PENTECOSTAL TRADITION, SHE WAS DISCOVERED @AGE 18 AND BROUGHT TO PHILADELPHIA TO BECOME A MODEL

  68. b.... ....

    She is so awesome. I wish that she had been appreciated more in her hey day. She was an originator not an imitator. A lot of things you see these young stars doing today she was doing way back in the late 70s and early 80s and not many fully understood it. She was way ahead of her time. Love you, Grace!

    b.... ....

    That is for certain !

  69. D.... S....

    Song Of The Day.

  70. m.... ....

    @atwiastage Right!

  71. m.... ....

    @atwiastage - are you sure you're not thinking of "I've seen that face before" by Grace in the movie "Frantic" starring Harrison Ford?

  72. P.... ....

    @lijit77 1 love-aim-destiny!

  73. K.... S....

    @tweetylns THIS SONG WAS ALSO SAMPLED BY KID"N"PLAY, WHERE KID DID A DUET WITH THE REAL ROXANNE CALLED"UNDERCOVER LOVER".

  74. t.... ....

    DOIN IT DOIN IT AND DOIN IT WELL DOIN IT DOIN IT AND DOIN IT WELL DOIN IT DOIN IT AND DOIN IT WELL !!!

  75. N.... Y....

  81. T.... ....

    @jasonforestabrams : My bad female Emcee named Lashaun

  82. T.... ....

    @jasonforestabrams Not Jingling Baby but Doing it. Which was a remake by a female Emcee named Lashae which he featured on the song as the female part but didnt put her in the video because she wasnt cute. She sued him soon after. The song was Doing It

  83. T.... ....

    So pretty, she looks like a sculpture.

  84. t.... ....

    @jasonforestabrams Actually this song was sampled for "Doin' It". Central Line's "Walking Into Sunshine" was sampled for "Jinglin' Baby".
